WherePeterIs.com is a site run by one such left-winger, Mike Lewis. In his post yesterday, he comments on an article by Michael Sean Winters, in which Winters plays Chicken Little by accusing us of fomenting schism. Apparently Winters is suggesting that the bishops, in their November USCCB meeting, address the all-important question of "to what degree are the seeds of a de facto schism being sown within the U.S. church?"
So that is what he suggests should be the
- "How many of us in this USCCB meeting need to resign yesterday over our coverups and even personal commissions of homosexual rapes?"
- "How will we bring fidelity and discipline back to the celebration of the Sacraments?"
- "What steps will we take to begin immediate obedience to Canon 915?"
But those things are such trivialities, you see? They don't amount to a hill of beans comparied to facilitation of border crashing, governmental gun-grabs from decent people, climate change (more on this later), etc.
So this Mike Lewis doesn't like us mean old "extremists" spouting "dangerous narratives". Let's take a look at Mr Lewis. His bio sketch at the end of his site indicates Maryland residence - not too surprising. Looking at his Linkedin profile, we see that he's Director of Operations at Catholic Climate Covenant. He appears to be relatively new at that organization so he wasn't there when I and other "extremists" exposed their shenanigans. Maybe had he looked at what we said, he might have had cause to pause. But maybe they were right up his ally anyway. Lewis is also a frequent guest on Mark Shea's radio program. Mark Shea is another left-leaning pundit who has from time to time had hissy-snits to hurl our way, with language that some could call "colorful". I refuse to link to his stuff for Patheos pays its bloggers according to the click counts accumulated by the sites.
We are getting their attention; that is why we are seeing all the temper tantrums. We can surmise that others of good will are being given food for thought as well.
